Is There a Weight Capacity for the CE Smith Bolster and Swivel Bracket # CE10000G

Question:
what is the loadweight rating of this bracket? I have a 94 19-20foot Cape Horn center console w/ a 22hp Merc Optimax. Will 6 of these brackets with 4 supporting most of the weight be sufficient..

Helpful Expert Reply:
I spoke to my contact at CE Smith and he informed me that they do not specify a weight rating for the CE Smith Bolster and Swivel Bracket # CE10000G because it does not bear the weight of the boat. It is actually the U-bolt that attaches this product to the cross member of your trailer that supports the weight.
He said that as long as you use a # CE10000G on every cross member you should have no problem carrying the weight of your boat.
